Microsoft Power BI Training
We deliver Microsoft Power BI training to suit users of all levels, from beginners looking to create simple data visualisations, to experienced users who would like to build on their Power Query and DAX knowledge to create powerful customised measures and build interactive dashboards.
We will consult with you before delivering any training to discuss how your team currently (or would like to) use Microsoft Power BI in order to put together a bespoke course that covers everything you need to do, and nothing you don’t.
Course content
Introductory level courses will help new Power BI users to get started on creating reports and visuals; knowledge of working with Excel workbooks and relational databases would be an advantage. Advanced level courses will be more suitable for existing users of Power BI who want to expand their skills to use advanced reporting techniques and use DAX to create calculated columns and measurement methods.
Typical content covered may include:
Introductory level course
- Importing, editing and transforming data
- Creating reports, visualisations & data models
- Using measures
- Using the Power BI Service and mobile app

Training formats available
We can deliver Microsoft Power BI training on-site at your premises or online, in any of the following formats (click to find out more):
On-site Classroom Training
On-site IT classroom training – the classic setup. A room of people on laptops, and one instructor up the front.
Traditional yet interactive sessions for up to eight people. A lively modern approach combining presentation, live demonstrations, and hands-on practical sessions.
Online Virtual Classroom
Online training sessions held live in a virtual classroom environment via remote software such as Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams.
Delivery is in a similar structure to traditional training courses, except that the instructor and all attendees connect remotely on their computers.
Q&A Workshop Sessions
Q&A Workshops take more of a relaxed conversational approach to training. They can take place either in the form of a group forum, or with the instructor walking the floor of the office to speak to users in their day-to-day environment.
Many people find it easier to translate abstract theory into real-world examples and practice when they are outside the more formal environment of the classroom and sat at their own desk.
One-to-One Training and Consultancy
Individual one-to-one training sessions can go into greater depth than is viable in a group scenario, which can be extremely beneficial for power users.
Another popular application for one-to-one sessions is where a train-the-trainer approach is sought, in order to facilitate future in-house learning.
Costs
We will put together a training programme designed around your specific training requirements, so the cost will depend on this – tell us what you’re looking for and we can provide a quote or use this as a guideline:
Microsoft Power BI Training Costs
Notes
- Based on a full-day session with up to eight delegates. If larger class sizes are required the rate may be higher. Half-day sessions are not available on all subjects.
- Standard course design is included in our costs, with training content and syllabus based on your requirements. If extensive bespoke development is required (e.g. branded content, customised processes), there may be an additional design cost. This is chargeable at the same day rate as training for the same software product, and will be discussed and agreed with you before any design takes place.
- All attendees will be given access to online support materials; if bespoke printed documentation is required this will be subject to an additional cost that will be agreed before course design takes place.
- On-site training is delivered at the customer’s premises. All travel and/or accommodation costs will be discussed and agreed with you before travel to site takes place. All other activity (e.g. online training, course design etc) takes place at our own premises and is not subject to travel costs.
- All costs are exclusive of VAT.
